Wow! This book was AMAZING! Piper has intrigued me since the first time I read about her and I was really curious to see who she ended up with and how she reached her happily ever after. The way this story was built was brilliant. I did not realize how strongly Piper's experience shaped who she became. It was really interesting to see the story unfold through the eyes of the people around her as they realized how her whole persona was shaped. This book had the typical ups and downs but was a great read.

I love a best friends to more story. I love the history between the lovelies, the fighting of feelings, the worry about ruining things between them.

Add in one who has been in love with the other for years and one who never wants marriage and kids, and, and you have Piper and Harley's story.

This is a slow burn of a story. as Harley fights his way out of the friendzone. I did get frustrated with Piper a lot of the time, as she was so stubborn and pigheaded and at times just stupid imo.

But I loved her at the same time.

Harley is boyfriend goals from the top of his head to the tip of his toes. Piper girl, if you don't want him, send him my way.

Was great to see the couples from the first three books, and as always there are crossovers from other series (I need to print out a family/series tree to keep up).

I am looking forward to more in this series

This is a friends to lovers story. Harley is a big, burly guy who would do anything for his family and friends. He is strong, dominant, sexy, and has such a huge heart. Piper is kick-ass, strong, sassy, hard-working, and caring. Harley has been patiently waiting for Piper to see him as more than a friend. She is quick to jump in and help him when he is injured, it is then he aggressively starts pursuing her. Piper keeps denying her feelings, believing she is not capable of being in love or good at relationships. I really wanted to shake her and knock some sense into her! Can Harley convince Piper that they have a future together?
This a fun, sexy yet emotional story with plot twists to keep you on your toes. I really enjoy Foster’s writing she can keep you engaged from the first page to the last page. Her characters are believable and lovable. This story is about family, love, and friendship and is definitely one to be enjoyed. Highly recommended. Advanced copy provided by the author in exchange for an honest review.

5 Star review of She Loves Me (Harmony Pointe #3) by Melissa Foster

Book three in the latest series from Ms.Foster and this is Piper Dalton and Harley Dutch’s story. I enjoy Ms. Foster’s style of writing, her characters are easy to relate to, strong and well written.

Piper has been hurt before and is convinced she will never finds happiness; constantly fighting to be seen in the male dominated construction business.

When her best friend Dutch needs helps she steps up not knowing that he has had feelings for her for years. As the walls they have built fall, love will blossom. The chemistry between Piper and Dutch sizzles.

I really enjoyed the banter and friendship between them, but when Dutch makes a massive mistake, will this be the end of what could be their chance at happiness?

I received a copy of this book through the publisher via NetGalley

As soon as I got this book I read. I could not put this book down. I believe this is by far my favorite Melissa Foster book!!

She Loves Me is a wonderful book that is full of fun flirty characters, hot romance and of course a little family drama. I have always loved sassy Piper, never afraid to lend a hand or stand up for anyone she loves. To see her fall head over hills for Harley was great. Harley who is as dedicated to his family and friends like Piper shows that he has patience. He has to since he has been in love with Piper Dalton for years and she has been to stubborn to realize it. Little by little Harley tears down the walls she has built around her heart and proves to her endlessly that he doesnt want her to change. When Piper finally to realizes her feelings for Harley, their relationship blooms in and out the the bedroom. Their chemistry is combustible. They make such a wonderful couple. As always I love each and every character in this series and it was fun seeing them again. What a fabulous story!

OMG this book sure does have some LOL moments. I loved the main characters so much and loved their chemistry , been waiting awhile for another book from Melissa Foster and I must say she did a fabulous job with this book, it was absolutely fantastic read and one I would totally recommend. Can’t go wrong with a Melissa Foster book. Everyone needs to have her books in their library and on their TBR list too. So what you waiting for, go grab your copy today. Happy reading everyone!

Piper and Harley have been friends forever. He was there when her heart was broken. He has always held a special place in his heart for her. He was and still is her “manblocker.” He is always there to scare potential dates away. Deep down no one is good enough for her but him. This is something he is yet to admit and never in a million years would Piper figure it out. She is so unlike her sisters and sister-in-law. Where they are frilly she is rough. But her heart is soft and she would do anything for anyone who needs it. That is why she agrees to help Harley with his nieces when he has an accident and is laid up.

This story is so full of love from everywhere. From Piper’s mom and her famous potions, to Harley’s mom playing matchmaker. No single adult is safe. Especially Harley and Piper. But like life nothing is easy. Piper has been hurt in the past by guys wanting to change her. She cannot believe that Harley wants her for what and who she is. She afraid of taking that step and enter into a relationship with him for that fear alone. What will happen to their friendship if things didn’t work out. As an optimist what would happen if you gave it a chance. Harley is determined to make Piper his and accept her for whatever she is willing to give. Will he succeed and prove to her he and they are worth the risk?

A splendid sequel to “This is Love”. Piper Dalton loves her work with Dalton Contracting doing construction and remodels. She is NOT a “girly girl” and enjoys sports and beer. Harley Dutch, after time working on Wall Street, has returned home to take over the family business, Dutch’s Pub. He has always had Piper’s back and has given her time to “see” him, but now the time is up. Piper never wants to marry, but things are changing between her and Harley. Every man she has dated has wanted her to “change”, will Harley accept her as she is? The back and forth dialog between them, adds so much laugh out loud humor to the story as Piper and Harley come to terms with their feelings. A well-rounded family story that brings us updates on past characters. I received an advance review copy at no cost and without obligation for an honest review. (by paytonpuppy)

I was given an ARC from NetGalley and was beyond excited to read this, as Melissa Foster is one of my favourite authors.
I have read the previous 2 books in the series and each can be read as standalone. But for me, the beauty of Melissa’s books is getting to know all the characters as a group and then in more detail within their own stories.
I loved this story about two best friends who riskily move from that to lovers. A romance with heat, love, friendship and laughter. The perfect escapism read when globally things are so awful.
4.5 stars

This is Piper and Harley's romance. It is book 3 in the series and I have read only the 2nd book. This book took me a very long time to read. Largely I think it was that I did not like Piper a whole lot. Harley was beyond wonderful but Piper I had a really tough time liking.

Piper and Harley are best friends, he runs a bar and she runs a construction company. She also dated his brother as a teenager, Marshall. Until he cheated on her and since then she is into casual or one night sex and no love or romance.

Harley is in love with her and has always been there for her and her family and vice versa on her side. She is a really great friend to him and so when he gets injured she helps him take care of his nieces while his sister is recovering from Cancer.

Even after Harley gets her to give him a chance at love, she still refuses to let him love her and marry her and for that was a big issue. It would have been different if many guys broke her heart but as a teen M cheated on her once. At 16!! And she never wanted to love again. I would have understood it more if something really awful happened but he just made her cry. This really made me kinda hate her.

Even after Marshall enters the story and apologizes and explains still she gives Harley a hard time. I really did hate her character. She does have some good points but I just did not understand her and I felt Harley deserved much better.

That said the writing is good and I perked up when Marshall came back to town. And I loved Harley and his sister and nieces.

This was my first read by Ms. Foster and I plan on reading more of her books; especially this series. The characters jump off the page and Ms. Foster is a genius on how her stories intertwine within each other. This story is about Piper Dalton, she has a construction company and surrounds herself in a male dominated world. Harley Dutch, a bar owner; he loves his family and will do anything to protect them. That is until he hurts his ankle and needs help. Piper comes to help and while under pain medicine, Harley lets Piper know how he feels. Piper, doesn’t do relationships; Harley knows this and is willing to fight for them. So where does this leave them? Will Harley get his girl? Gotta read this to find out how Harley breaks down all of Piper’s walls, and know his love. You will not be disappointed! Harley, on drugs is freaking funny! Harley off...

2.5 stars

So drawn out and boring. I actually stopped reading this and read two other books in between. I needed a break. I’m disappointed because I was looking forward to these two, but there was so much unnecessary dribble about feelings. And then it just got stupid and over the top cheesy. I couldn’t wait to be done.

Being the last of the Dalton clan to settle down, Piper believes that romance and love only changes a person and not for the better. That is until she spends quality time with Harley, the flirt who has said over and over that she is the one. Injured and in need of assistance Harley shows Piper the true meaning of family and love while he cares for his two nieces while their mother is ill. Through in the backstory with Harley's brother and the reader has a better understanding of his true feelings for Piper. But can Piper change her beliefs? Or is relationship doomed from the get go? With honest and lovable characters this is another great addition to the Harmony Pointe series.

While normally a fan of this author and the characters of the Dalton family from her others books, I have to say I struggled with this one. To me the story was just too drawn out and could easily have been shortened. Since it was a best friends to lovers trope, you clearly didn't need for Piper and Harley to get to know one another but it just, to me, seemed repetitive. Although I will say there were some funny moments in the book and it was great to get an update on all the other family members. I just would have liked to shorten the story a bit.

Piper is not a girly girly like her sisters, she runs her family’s construction business, likes sports and hanging with the guys. Harley, owns the local bar, and has been waiting patiently for Piper (one of his best friends) to realize that he might just want something more. When Hayley hurts is ankle, Piper picks him and and helps him take care of his nieces. This was another great book in the Harmony Pointe series. I really enjoyed watching Piper accept that she could be in a relationship and not her to change who she is., in addition to seeing all of the Dalton’s again in a story. Definitely worth the read.

Melissa Foster is a new author to me. I did hesitate starting with a 3rd in a series, but I was intrigued by the description of She Loves Me and decided to go for it. I'm really happy that I did and thankfully it turned out to be a standalone. It does have quite a few side characters that I believe have their own books, and while it took me a bit to learn who everyone was, I never felt lost.

For my first read by this author this turned out to be a great one. I happy to know I have several books to read by all these side characters. I really enjoyed that small town feel and all the people in our main couples lives. The author even has me excited for future books with some still unattached characters. I am such a sucker for single parent romances and it looks like we got a few to look forward to.

As for our main characters? Oh man, was Harley amazing! My number one favorite thing in a hero is a man who knows what he wants and goes for it. Add in that he's devoted, loyal, awesome with kids, makes him almost perfect in my eyes. And the way he was so patient with Piper, he never gave up. I loved him!

Piper had some thorns. She has a lot of hangups about men and I wanted her to accept Harley's love easier but once she gave him a chance, she never pushed him away. She worked at trying to open up to him and she was honest. I loved how honest she was. You don't have any games being played with these two. It really was refreshing and it made me love her character despite that big wall she had up.

I really enjoyed my first book by Melissa Foster. I highly recommend it and can see myself going back and re-reading this one again.

2.5 stars.
“She Loves Me”, by Melissa Foster (Montlake Romance), is a friends-to-lovers romance, with two likable main characters and a cast of lots of family related characters and several happy married couples with children.
Harley and Piper are nice, selfless and affectionate people. When they turn from friends to lovers the sex scenes dominate the story, along with conversations about feelings, emotions and relationships, involving them and other characters. They have good chemistry and their attraction is convincing.
Although, to an extent, I liked the strong bonds of love between characters and how good “open and loving” Harley and Piper are together, and their connection and electricity, this isn’t really my type of story. There’s a lot of lusting, graphic sex and endless descriptions of Harley’s prowess and physical attributes, including the super large dimensions of his “banana” (also designated as “bulge”, “package”, “girth”, “monster”, “hard shaft”…).
A quote (from ARC):
“They’d ended up with Harley lying on his back in the bathtub, the shower raining down on them as she rode him like the stallion he was.”

Melissa is one of my favorite authors and with every book, they are so good. I loved Piper and Harley. Their chemistry was great and could cut the tension between them with a knife. Great characters and so enjoyable. Very fun book to read.

Thank you Netgalley, the author and publisher for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

She Loves Me by Melissa Foster a knockout five-star read. This is number three in the Harmony Pointe series and I would recommend you read them In order but that is only as I have read them in order but if you don’t fancy them all you could pick it up but I don’t know if you would miss bits. This was funny and real in a sarcastic and honest manner. Piper Dalton may just be my favourite character of this whole series, she really made me smile, she just had this spark to her that leapt of the page. Piper made me laugh and made my heart brake for her, I loved how she helped Harley with his nieces, I think that helped her come to terms with a lot. Harley Dutch well he was a different matter, he made me ball my fists at times and then want to lovingly smile at him in the next breath. Overall I enjoyed this one, but it wasn’t my favourite of the series, even though it contained my favourite character, that being said it could be the times that I read this novel and wrote this review as its crazy times a foot, times that we could all do with our own Mad House.
